A Highly Efficient Copper-Catalyzed Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Diaryl- and Aryl Alkyl Chalcogenides from Aryl Iodides and Diorganyl Disulfides and Diselenides

An efficient and convenient protocol has been developed for the copper-catalyzed reaction of aryl iodides and diorganyl disulfides and diselenides. A variety of symmetrical and unsymmetrical diaryl- and aryl alkyl chalcogenides were synthesized with good functional group tolerance and chemoselectivity by using copper(I) iodide as a catalyst, 4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine as ligand, and KOH as base under an inert atmosphere.

Porphyrins with enhanced multi-photon absorption cross-sections for photodynamic therapy

A method of increasing the multi-photon absorption cross-section of a porphyrin-based photosensitizer by attaching at least one TPA-chromophore at the meso- or beta-positions of a porphyrin structure of the porphyrin-based photosensitizer, and at least on

A facile and convenient synthesis of 2-(arylthio)thiophenes, 2-(alkylthio)thiophene, and 2-(thiophenylthio)thiophene

2-(Arylthio)thiophenes, 2-(alkylthio)thiophene, and 2-(thiophenylthio)thiophene were prepared in high yield by simply mixing 2-iodothiophene and aryl, alkyl, or thienyl thiols at room temperature without solvent, base, and/or catalyst.
